Chapter 128 – Chapter 128 Cecilia, Emily, and Leuclide

“Why did you bring it? I know your memory hasn’t completely returned yet.”

At my words, Emily shook her head.

“Not all, but most of them are back.”
“Most?”
“Okay.”
“Where are you missing?”
“That the guards violated themselves at the order of Leuclid.”

Emily said in a voice so low that only I could hear.

“As expected.”
“Because it hurts when I think of that time.”
“It did.”

I could still hear that voice.
The figure of Cecilia who howled sadder than animals in the cabin.
When he lost his mind again and lost her memory, he always found Leuclid.
Her words as Cecilia, who has forgotten all that her Leuclid has done to her.

Now that figure has disappeared as if it had been washed.
It was a part that showed how much Emily cared for her.

“Are you okay now?”
“It has improved a lot. She thought she might be able to testify, so she brought her along… You don’t have to.”
“Why are you saying that?”
“Are you going to be emperor?”
“I mean?”
“No? Otherwise, there would be no need to wage a civil war like this.”
“As you know, unless you formally succeed to the throne, opposition from nobles will be inevitable.”
“What’s wrong with people who have already gone to war?”
“Because I don’t want the war to get bigger.”
“I am surprised.”
“What?”

Emily pursed her lips.

“I thought you were a man who would have a broken world.”
“Why did you think that?”
“You can tell just by looking at your actions right now, right?”

Emily grinned when she finished her words.

“Otherwise, no one can think of imprisoning the emperor and occupying the capital.”
“Stop talking nonsense here. If I talk more, it will only make my head hurt.”
“I will support you. Whatever you choose.”
“Thank you.”
“Instead, just listen to that condition.”
“What do you mean?”
“I want marriage between girls to be legally approved.”

After speaking, Emily looked at Cecilia.
Her Emily’s face was full of her love her as she looked at her.
The face of a woman who sees the one she loves innocently.
There was not an inch of lies on her face.

“Isn’t it a problem if you go back to being a man?”
“Ha, it’s not an easy problem.”
“What?”
“Surgery is difficult…”

Emily hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth with difficulty.

“Cecile is afraid of men.”
“You mean a man?”
“Yes. Excluding you, of course. I don’t know why, but when he saw you, he wasn’t afraid.”
“Is it.”

I found out why.
It was Cecilia who was healed with my mana.
Probably because I’m familiar with my mana pulse.
Just like a newborn baby recognizes its parents her.
It must be that she feels close to me who has been restored by her body.

I didn’t bother to tell you that.
You don’t even have to.
I hadn’t even thought of that.

“So you can’t go back to being a man?”
“Right.”

If a law was made for women to marry, Emily would do everything in her power to marry Cecilia.

“I get it. I don’t know what will happen, but I will do my best.”
“I believe that you will take care of yourself even if you don’t become emperor yourself.”

He nodded without speaking.

“And…”

Emily hesitated for a moment.
A look of sincere dislike spread across her face.
After thinking about it for a while

“Cecile said there is something she wants to tell you.”

Emily opened her mouth.

“What?”

I saw Cecilia.
She took a step closer to me.

“I want to see Ruclid.”
“The emperor?”
“Yes.”
“You wouldn’t know what I did to you.”
“I know. However…”

Cecilia’s voice trembled as she spoke.

“I think it’s something we have to face at least once.”

Her gaze at me was firm.
However, she could n’t hide the trembling of her body.

“Are you okay?”
“Yes.”
“You want to see it alone? If not…”

I saw her Emily standing next to her.

“I will go alone. I don’t need anyone else.”
“How can I trust you? I could have run away with Ruclid.”
“You may come if you wish.”

You would be talking about me.

“Done. I don’t have the hobby of watching love fights.”

Instead of answering, I asked Emily.

“Are you okay?”
“Emily agreed.”
“Call me Emily.”
“Because it has changed. Me and Emily.”

I looked at Cecilia for a moment.
I thought for a moment about casting a spell on her head.
I stopped at her unwavering, straight eyes.

“I get it. Let me respond.”
“Thanks. Minister.”
“But now it is impossible. I’d rather wait a few days. I still have a lot of things to sort out.”

I pointed to the war-torn capital.

“I can wait.”
“Good night.”

After her words her, Cecilia politely bowed her head and left her seat.

“Ah, Cecilia.”
“Yes?”

I called her up like that.

“After meeting the emperor, talk to me privately. There is something I want to ask you.”

A idiot like me.
There were so many things she wanted to know about her that made her irreparable mistakes.
Cecilia turned around and nodded her head.

“… I know.”

Cecilia retreats escorted by female guards.
Seeing that, Emily opened her mouth.

“I heard rumors that he made the emperor into a woman.”
“You got it right.”
“Because the information power of the Gold Merchants is the best in the Empire.”
“Have you told Cecilia?”
“Yet, I won’t tell her until she sees it for herself.”
“Is that why she allowed me to meet with Leuclid? So that Cecilia laughs at him who has become miserable?”
“No.”

Emily shook her head.

“It wasn’t because of that that Cecil gave permission to meet with Ryuclid. I just want her to forget.”
“It is a disaster.”

It was truly devoted love.

“A foolish beggar.”

Emily gave a self-deprecating smile.
Laughter wrote.

“I wish I never met you. But if I stopped, Cecil would hate me. She only reluctantly gave permission. I also want this opportunity to shake off her lingering feelings of her.”

It’s painful love
Emily was the only one whose image was the same as the image she had seen in the novel.
As much as she was, she was affectionate and pitiful.
Is that why?
I said things she wouldn’t normally say.

“Don’t lose me this time.”
“Don’t worry. I will never hand over Cecilia to Ruclid this time.”

There was power in Emily’s voice in her.

***

Leuclide closed the door and buried his head in his arms her.

“Sniff, sniff.”

Even if he told his other servants his, no one would believe him.
That the mad emperor of the world has collapsed like this.
Who will believe
That the mad emperor, Ryuclid, who killed people according to his mood his, was crying alone like a delicate woman.

‘No one came.’
She didn’t see the Imperial Army.
It was she who had her absolute legitimacy of her, but no one came to her rescue her.
That fact drove a wedge into Ruclid’s wounded heart.

After that day, she couldn’t leave the house all day.
I drew the curtains and locked the door to forget the shocking fact.

Looking for him is Maurice, the owner of this mansion.

“You haven’t eaten today. I will take this away.”

Dalgrak.
Only Sebastian, who occasionally brings meals in place of Maurice.

“Isn’t Maurice coming?”
“That’s right. Master is busy with work.”
“Then… Go.”
“I will tell you soon, if you wish.”
“That’s Okay. You don’t have to.”
“All right.”

After placing the food on the table, Sebastian lowered his head.
He didn’t say anything.
It was always like this.
Without saying anything, he just remains silent.
Why was she drawn?
How she was drawn
What is her true identity of her?
Why are you having such a hard time
Didn’t ask any

He simply obeys his master’s orders.

“Hey.”

Unknowingly, Ryuclid summoned Sebastian and stood him up.

“What are you doing?”

Sebastian turned his head.

“Why are you so blindly loyal?”
“You mean being loyal to your master?”
“Yes, don’t you wonder why I am here?”
“I am not curious. No. There’s no reason to wonder. Because I believe in the master’s choice. There must be a reason.”
“Is that all?”
“Yes. Do you have any special reasons for being loyal to your master?”
“What do you believe in and loyal to Maurice Dmitri?”
“Because I believe in his abilities his. That you can do anything.”
“Don’t you think he was wrong?”
“I do it sometimes, but I have to follow it nonetheless. Because that is the duty of becoming a butler.”

Ruclid still couldn’t understand.
Envious at the same time
The Maurice family with such blindly loyal servants.
And she wondered.
What about him made the old man follow Maurice that way?

It was the moment when Maurice Dmitri took a big place in her mind once again.

Sebastian had no way of knowing that fact.

“Then, enjoy your meal.”

After saying goodbye as politely as possible, I went out.

Thud.

Watching the door close.
Ryuclid thought.

‘Maurice Dmitri, how many secrets are you hiding?’
The end of his power was not in sight.

But why do I keep thinking of this man?
It must have been Maurice who dragged her into this hell of hers.
If you stop thinking about it, do you feel an unknown sense of relief?

“I don’t know.”

She squatted down once more.

Even though the food was getting cold, Ruclid didn’t look at the bowl.
Rather, it dug deeper into the abyss of thought.

Deeper, deeper.
